"OK, I've just about had my FILL of riddle-asking, quest-assigning, insult-throwing, pun-hurling, hostage-taking, iron-mongering, smart-arsed fools, freaks, and felons that continually test my will, mettle, strength, intelligence, and most of all, patience! If you've got a straight answer ANYWHERE in that bent little head of yours, I want to hear it pretty damn quick or I'm going to take a large blunt object roughly the size of Elminster AND his hat, and stuff it lengthwise into a crevice of your being so seldom seen that even the denizens of the nine hells themselves wouldn't touch it with a twenty-foot rusty halberd! Have I MADE myself perfectly CLEAR?!" - CHARNAME, Baldur's Gate
Haha, right? Different costume every day, but we have a group for each, so it should be fun. Once we get delicious deets about ME4 amd Borderlands 3 (or the movie!) we're going to start working on cosplay for those.
Sorry for poofing! I have a super busy weekend--karaoke with girlfriends and working on loads of cosplay. Making 5 costumes in a month is fine, right??? >.>
Maybe not the first introduction, but their first mission together? Like, they know names and faces, maybe combat speciality, but otherwise they are strangers?
Reducing the real suffering of people to fascinating , as if they and their history are amusing little thought experiments or playthings, says so much about your character. Or rather, your complete lack of it.
We have a lot of historical evidence of what happens when one group is given total power over another. This "game" does nothing to further discourse, to examine things critically and learn lessons from the trauma, to promote healing. There is nothing to be gained by turning it into a scored game, and your desire to see what others would do is disguting.
Don't lie about why you're doing this. At least own up to the fact that this is you trying to get your rocks off. And then take a long look at yourself and get yourself into therapy so you can figure out why you are so morally bankrupt and callous that this ever seemed like a good idea.
Also, have you not considered what it would be like to be the dragon as opposed to the knight?
Holy shit, dragons aren't real. There is a fundamental difference between writing about a make believe, amoral being doing abhorrent shit than writing out the actual rape and subjugation of people in detail and rewarding players for doing worse and worse things.
Way to undermine the suffering of thousands for "just a collaborative writing exercise", asshole.
What possible good could come out of this? Like, I could almost understand if this were a well thought out piece of commentary or satire (which would require a great deal more care than using a scoring system to encourage players to write out atrocities what the fuck ) intended to critique, say, modern Japan's issues with refusing to admit to all the shit they did when they caught the Imperialism fever, but even that would be a huge stretch. It would undergo a lot of scrutiny, and rightfully so.
Using war crimes for titillation and #2edgy4u is abhorrent.
